    It looks like you can just do ./db-init.sh in a terminal in the server directory

      FATAL: Peer authentication failed for user "postgres"

      Also there wasnt server directory, that file was in scripts

        Hmm, I didn't encounter that on my end. I'm not on Linux so it might be an OS difference.

            https://git.chapo.chat/hexbear-collective/lemmy-hexbear is the rust backend, it's the one currently in production. Should use that. Also it has the frontend as a submodule.

              I managed to execute ./db-init.sh and now that i run cargo run i get

              could not connect to server: Connection refused

              Is the server running on host "localhost" (127.0.0.1) and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432?

                hmm, maybe try restarting postgres? If you could run db-init using its default config, it should at least be on the right port already

                  if by restarting you meant sudo service postgresql restart then it didnt work

          Actually these problems might be because i cloned the repository provided in documentation you sent me and not the hexbear backend, i will try these steps with it and see if it works
